I finished Rise of the Golden Idol, which I really liked overall, but the ending didn't do much for me, I thought it was going in a way that interested me, and the pivot to something that makes more sense, makes more sense but completely deflated it for me. Because the way the language puzzle works it meant my final guess was so far off that I only fixed it with the hint system. Also I really wanted it to be like 1 hour less of a game, so I wasnt up for another hour of being a detective and slowly swapping between screens and making notes on things. A very good game, but not as good as the first.
Persona 5, I've begun the second heist, and I really enjoy both parts of the game, but I almost wish I could just do the life sim and the dungeon crawler independent of each other, because it feels like I simply do not have the time to do what I want and I'm sure that's intentional, but it's the biggest struggle for me to play through these types of games.
Path of exile 2, it's good, it's also very poorly balanced, with needing a good weapon being so important and not really giving you the tools to get one. It has some really cool interesting boss fights, that have 20% too much going on. It does make it satisfying when you beat them, but also they need better sign posting for these boss fight mechanics. also the game has horrendous stuttering for me which I can only presume is because I'm on wireless internet that hiccups, but it's around 17ms ping most of the time so I really hope they figure it out. But given that poe1 had this issue for like 10 years and never felt great to play either. It's probably the thing that will force me to drop the game.
